Course Description
Learning Outcomes
In this presentation, Renee Roy Hill will discuss treatment of
clients diagnosed with apraxia of speech and related motor
speech disorders. Many of these clients do not respond to the
traditional auditory and visually-based motor speech
techniques often because other co-existing issues, including
oral sensory deficits, feeding deficits, and oral placement
deficits, are not addressed making differential diagnosis an
important assessment component. Renee demonstrates how
OPT activities, which utilize a tactile approach, in conjunction
with auditory and visually-based apraxia therapy techniques will
improve speech clarity for clients with the diagnosis of apraxia.
1. Identify three deficiencies as related to motor
planning, motor based and sensory deficits.
2. Understand the direct link between working on oral
placement movements and speech sound
production.
3. Use at least 3 new speech therapy techniques with
existing clients.
4. Learn OPT transition techniques from movement to
speech sound production.
5. Discover a hierarchy of working from the isolated
sound through higher level syllable sequencing.
“Eye opening, full of techniques I can use immediately in my practice.”
